Good morning everyone,I am having a problem passing a screen parameter/variable to a custom menu block.I am sending code to a background job, as IFS gives me an error using UTL_FILE directly in the custom menu block.The invoice_id_ variable in the main block works and returns the value of &INVOICE_ID, however in the background job text within the stmt variable, the same variable invoice_id_ does not return the value of &INVOICE_ID, it returns :__g_Bind.n[0] and I am unable to understand why this doesn’t work. DECLARE  attr_ VARCHAR2(32000);  sql_msg_ VARCHAR2(32000);  stmt_ VARCHAR2(32000);  invoice_id_ VARCHAR2(240) := &INVOICE_ID || '.PDF';BEGINstmt_ := 'DECLARE  invoice_id_ VARCHAR2(240) := &INVOICE_ID || ''.PDF'';BEGIN  UTL_FILE.FCOPY(''BIAL_INVOICE_SCAN_LB'', invoice_id_, ''BIAL_PDF'', invoice_id_, 1, NULL);END;';  sql_msg_ := Message_SYS.Construct('SUP_INV_ANA_SAVE_PDF');  Message_SYS.Add_Attribute(sql_msg_, 'SQL', stmt_);  Client_SYS.Clear_Attr(attr_);  Client_SY

Looking for method to add custom attributes to the Inventory Turnover Rate results table and/or adding additional criteria to the Search Criteria attributes.Custom fields on the results table were possible in Apps10 but Cloud uses a Virtual set which doesn’t appear to be possible.Can anyone help? 

Hi PSO experts,The scheduling guide indicates that “A location can belong to more than one region”, please see screenshot below. Unfortunately an example is not given for this scenario.We have a requirement from the client, which indicates that 2 work orders can have the same geographic location but be “tagged” to 2 different regions. The regions are used as a mechanism to group disciplines. Work Order Location Region WOA002 RP0307997 ME01A WOA003 RP0307997 ME51A  My payload below works only partially. Because both activities get allocated the same region ME01A. The region ME51A is ignored. Please see last screenshot. Please notice that we have renamed Regions as “Field Manager”.  <Activity>    <id>WOA002</id>    <activity_type_id>MMR001</activity_type_id>    <location_id>RP0307997</location_id>  </Activity>  <Activity>    <id>WOA003</id>    <activity

Could someone point me to where I may find work instructions with examples for IFS site, production line, work center, and routing setup to support visual shop order planning? I see some general structure documentation on these and a few demos explaining new UI for Aurena, but I'd like to understand the optimum way to set up the architecture for our manufacturing sites & lines by referencing a step by step work instruction with some hypothetical examples.

How to setup this type of Purchase Authorization  

We are currently using Apps 10. With the upcoming retirement of a supervisor of Maintenance dept, a technician has been promoted to the supervisor position. Here are the steps we have taken in IFS:Created a new position, S-MAIN, since the previous position is no longer valid. The parent position is PRGM (Program Manager). We used RMB and Generate for this process. In the “Employee” Screen - Assignments tab, updated the position ID for the new supervisor to S-MAIN and set the Valid From date to 7/1/2024. In the Graphical Organization Structure’s maintenance department, added the new supervisor to the “Access” tab. As MT1 and MT2 positions should fall under S-MAIN, I moved these positions from their previous locations to under S-MAIN using drag-and-drop in the Graphical Position Structure. RMB > Generate After following these steps, The employees assigned to MT1 and MT2 positions are now updated with the new supervisor in the Employee screen. However, I am encountering the following

Hi. Is it possible to open a page in a different layout from a specific source in Cloud? (Currently 23R1, but 24R1 in August) In our case we have created a lobby for filtering serials in stock based on attributes, and a link to open "inventory part in stock" based on filter in lobby.When opening “inventory part in stock” from the lobby we want a different page layout with focus on custom fields, not layout in context. When opening inventory part in stock from navigator/other lobbies we want the standard layout from our context

Hi,If an operation with an entity discontinues in the middle of the year, is there any way to get the profit earned (for periods it was with the group) after discontinuing?

Good evening.  I would appreciate help wrt the Access Attribute and Access Roles functionality.  Example - Employment Employed Period.  If you select “Self Access” and the Attribute is Active, does that mean that the Employee is able to for example modify (if you select Modification) their dates or blocked from modifying their dates?  I am logged in as the Supervisor of the Employee but whether I select Self Access or Access to Employee, I am able to see the employment dates of my subordinate; there is no change.  Many thanks.  Anya.

We have multiple companies running in the same IFS tenant, and some associates have access to the multiple companies. We’ve created appearances for each company to help lessen any confusion. The issue is on screens like Customer Agreements and Customer Financials - when you change the company option on the local page the Appearance Configuration doesn’t automatically update to the newly-chosen site’s appearance. Is there a way to have sections like Customer Agreements and Customer Financials update their appearance automatically? Note - we have thought about trying a workflow but haven’t yet.

I’ve used the Query Designer to create a projection query that includes a date field. I’ve added a filter parameter for that field, since I want the date applied to the filter to be dynamic. The documentation says I should be able to use a context substitution variable in the datasource designer with that parameter.However, when I use #TODAY# as the parameter value on the datasource, I can see that the substitution is adding single quotes around the date value, producing a datatype mismatch error. The request header shows the URL looks like this:/main/ifsapplications/projection/v1/QueryProjectionReliability_Monitor_Due_Count_By_Assembly.svc/GetReliability_Monitor_Due_Count_By_Assembly(CurrentDate='2023-11-07')?$select=AssemblyTypeCode,CountOfMonitorDue&$orderby=AssemblyTypeCode&$top=25&$skip=0Note the single quotes added to 2023-11-07, turning it into a string value. If I manually remove the single quotes, the URL returns the expected payload.How do I keep the #TODAY# CSV f

Hi everyone,I've noticed that the cost element in the item request lines in the project materials and Services doesn't go up automatically for items with a price of 0 in Supplier for purchase part.In this first example, i’ve setup a price 1£ in the supplier for purchase part for the part H000001 with the supplier 1120031. Then, i add a new lines in the Project materials and Services and when i ask the cost element in the lines, it’s coming up automatically.   In this second example, i’ve setup a price 0£ in the supplier for purchase part for the part H000001 with the supplier 1000055. Then, i add a new lines in the Project materials and Services and when i ask the cost element in the lines, it’s don’t coming up automatically.  So my question is whether it's possible to automatically raise the cost element on the line with a price of 0 in supplier for purchase part. If it is possible, can you tell me what to do?Thank you very much.

Hello, I am looking into the Export control. As I remember in App9 or App10 version when I am trying to set up export control for Customer orders (Inventory Part type purchase) when connecting the license I had to create a supplier for purchase part and define the export control codes in there.In App9, in the connection log it shows the user that you need to create supplier for purchase part and define those export control basic data if you haven’t defined them. And in that version both Part catalog export control data and supplier for purchase part export control data required in order to fully connect the license.But in Cloud 23R1 version, even when I didn’t define any supplier for purchase part export control data, system allows me to connect the master part export control type and approve the entire license. In previous versions if we only connect one it appeared as “Partially connected”. Did something changed after moving to cloud? I assumed since my sales part type is purchased s
